I think "rw" is the printer capability to use.
Here is an example I use:
raw:\
:rw:sh: \
:lp=/dev/lp0: \
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/raw: \
:mx#0:\
:af=/var/log/lp-acct:\
:lf=/var/log/lp-errs:\
:fx=flp:\
:sf:
It prints directly without a filter. (My wife uses some hard-to-use
operating system that sends her email via SMB to our print server; the
printer content is already to use, so it uses this "raw" printer.)
